Whittington Back in ICU (FNC Reporting Minor Heart Attack)
WJIM-AM | February 14, 2006 | be-baw

Posted on 02/14/2006 10:09:50 AM PST by be-baw

I just heard from a local radio reporter (during Rush newsbreak at approximately 1:00 p.m) that Whittington "may have taken a turn for the worse," and was put back into intensive care.

"To be put in ICU in the first place indicates that the wounds were somewhat more serious than being peppered."

I wondered about that yesterday. If these were just pellets imbedded in skin or muscle, there would be no reason for the ICU. Apparently X-rays showed the pellet in the heart muscle. That can cause problems in the first few days, so they were being conservative and popped him into the ICU.

With apologies to Doug From Upland:

To the tune of "Bus Stop":


Bird shot
Face hit
Heart attack maybe
Will he survive tomorrow
All the media blames Cheney
They will cause much sorrow
All the lies they will spin
To make make matters worse
You know that it won't end if he gets better
Because indictments will be pending!

I had to say two things regarding this press conference...

First, the press DOES NOT LISTEN to the answers they are given. They ask questions about things that were already explained.

Second, they are rooting for this man to die. I hate to say that, but it is very clear that they are.

Grrrrr...

It's on the outside of the heart --- you have the heart itself, which is a muscle, then you have 4 chambers which are insdie of that muscle.

But you also have a membrane covering the heart -- my husband is thinking that a pellet lodged into that membrane and caused the inflamatory reaction -- foreign object in membrane.

He can't be certain, because all I am asking him to do is translate and interrupt what we're all hearing.

Even the DOCTOR was getting ticked at the press. Is there ANYONE they don't mind ticking off?

I don't know. I just started using it when I saw it used here on FR.

Maybe someone else knows when the term "presser" started to be used?

Yep, that doctor has had it with the press. I personally enjoyed seeing him go after the press. But his press associate knew it was time to cut off the questions.

This is unreal.

I'm going to monitor CNN.

There was no excuse for the media to react that way to the doctors.
